How to play GTA San Andreas on PC with a Controller
To play GTA San Andreas on your PC with a controller, first make sure you have a compatible controller (Xbox or PlayStation controllers usually work great). Plug your controller into your PC or connect it via Bluetooth. Then, launch GTA San Andreas. The game should automatically detect your controller, and you're ready to start playing. If it doesn’t detect your controller, you might need to check your PC's Bluetooth settings or make sure the USB connection is secure.

If the game doesn't recognize your controller right away, try using a tool like DS4Windows if you're using a PS4 controller, or just check the Steam Big Picture mode settings. These can help make almost any controller work with any PC game, including GTA San Andreas.
Another pro-tip: If you're using an older controller or one that's not immediately recognized by Windows, third-party apps like JoyToKey or x360ce can map controller buttons to keyboard keys, letting you customize your gameplay experience even further. This way, even non-standard controllers can work with GTA San Andreas.
Eh, why bother? Keyboard and mouse all the way. Controllers are overrated for GTA.
Just plug and play, honestly. Most times Windows will recognize your controller and GTA San Andreas should too. If not, you’re probably out of luck or in need of a different controller.
